Sketch Saturday no. 151

Well, this is yet another card I am entering into a challenge. Sketch Saturday this time. I needed to do a male card for a work colleague whose birthday is next week. I do find male cards quite difficult as you are limited by colours and embellishments! No flowers or gems really so I thought I'd go with buttons - haven't used them on a card for a loooong time!

I used some grey SU card and some stripey paper from my never ending stash lol! I couldn't think of a suitable image so I went with the Happy Birthday sentiment repeated randomly. I still think it's lacking 'something' but I nearly always feel this way with male cards. A card to me is not quite complete without a gem or 3!!

About Me

Hi, my name is Donna and I started making cards around May 2009. I have 4 children, a loving husband and a full time job in a secondary school. Luckily I only work term time so get chance to make cards during the holidays! I had a craft room built (June/July 2011) so I can craft to my hearts content ... lucky me :))
